Promontory

Utah cheddar made with Jersey Cow's milk 

This Utah original gets its name from Promontory Summit, the historic location where the Union Pacific and the Central Pacific Railroad lines linked 150 years ago.

What does it taste like?

This Cheddar is creamy, buttery, and brothy. We’re known for our rubbed-rind cheeses and Promontory is our "mother" cheese. It’s simple and elegant.

Trying to decide between the 12 oz or quarter wheel?

The 12-oz cut is our work horse. This one is for the entertainer or used in cooking. It’s enough cheese for a couple grilled cheese sammies or a party of 12-16 guests. These wedges have a 3 month shelf life if kept in the original packaging. 

The 5 lb quarter wheel is perfect for large parties and weddings.
